nEver since Qin Wushuang had stepped onto the path of martial arts, he had been slowly tempered into steel and was undaunted by the repeated setbacks. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. The stronger and the more tyrannical the enemies, the more his potential would be drawn out to deal with them.

nEver since the Wealthy Class Xu family, how many powerhouses and individuals had wanted to step on Qin Wushuang’s head?

nThe Wealthy Class Xu family, Xi Men Feudal Lords, West Chu, Great Wu, Devil Boy, Archaic Mysterious sect, Nine Palace Faction… Too numerous to mention individually. However, not one of them had gotten Qin Wushuang to compromise, not to mention destroying his belief.

nCurrently, the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect was a giant figure that he could not provoke. However, Qin Wushuang would not fear by such gigantic figure nor would he tremble before it.

nHe only had one belief—Regardless the highest mountain, as long as he had confidence, he would definitely climb above it with the right strategies. As long as he had the persistence and methods, he would stomp it flat for sure!

nEarlier, he had thought that the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect would not make a big fuss over a little Zuo Tianci. Thinking now, he had overestimated the tolerance of the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect.

nSeeing this Heavenly Luo Daoist sect continue to increase the bounty on his head, they clearly wanted to get rid of him as fast as possible!

nThe first day Qin Wushuang had arrived in this world, he understood the cruelty in the competition. The conflicts between the tiny martial arts students were life and death. Not to mention when the conflict rose to the level of a giant powerhouse in the Xuan Yuan Mound.

nSo what about fighting to the last breath?

nSince the day he had stepped onto this path, when had he not fought desperately when confronting mortal danger? Only by not being afraid of death would truly make him strong from the deepest level, to allow his belief to remain forever standing!

nYou are on, Heavenly Luo Daoist sect!

nSeeing Bao Bao and Lone becoming slightly restless, Qin Wushuang shot glances at them to suppress their urge. Currently, he was rather curious about what sort of identity of this divine guest with the purple beard possessed.

nFrom this guest with the purple beard, he had sensed a deep and immeasurable power. Although this power was not unpredictable like Li Buyi nor it was immeasurable like Senior Yun Xuechen, he was still,without question, the strongest elite warrior Qin Wushuang had seen besides those two!

nThe calmest person was Jiu Fang Feiyun. This young man had continued drinking as if he had turned a deaf ear to everything and did not show the slightest interest in the reward.

nOnly, without one knowing, Jiu Fang Feiyun would glance at Qin Wushuang. Apparently, this Jiu Fang Feiyun knew his identity.

nOf course, since Qin Wushuang knew that Jiu Fang Feiyun shared an old friendship with the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, he would not sell him out at this time.

nThe guest with the purple beard stroked his long beard and said with a smile: “I heard that the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect had once sent a disciple to the human countries, do you know about this?”

nSince Iron Holler had received great benefits, he would not hide anything as he laughed: “This is not some news. You must have come from quite a faraway place. Or else, how come you have never heard about it?”

n“Although it’s old news, there must be more details if someone like you, who sells information, is talking about it. Tell me.”

n“Ha ha. That Nine Palace Faction is ruled by the nephew of an Elder from the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect. I think it’s also a branch of the sect. It’s reasonable for the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect to interject themselves. Initially, the disciple sent by Heavenly Luo Daoist sect had already grasped the situation. Unexpectedly, someone had come out during the process and caused that disciple to fall back.”

n“Oh?” The guest with the purple beard smiled as he was interested in this topic, “Keep talking.”

n“That person was a lady, and with her was another young lady. As for her exact identity, there has been no accurate information. Without a doubt, that lady must be a disciple to a major powerhouse in the Xuan Yuan Mound. Or else, she would not have the power to command that person to stop.”

nThe guest with the purple beard frowned slightly: “Is it truly that no one knew the identity of that lady?”

nIron Holler chuckled and an unnoticeable crafty light flashed across his face. He shook his head: “No one knows.”

n“You are lying.” The guest with the purple beard said lightly, “In your smile a moment ago, there was a flicker of facial movement. This is the sign of one speaking lies.”

nThis guest with purple beard was clear as a flame. Inadvertently, he had exposed Iron Holler’s lies.

nIron Holler’s entire body became embedded with cold sweat from the shock.

nThat subordinate next to the guest with the purple beard put on a cold expression and said: “Speak honestly about what you know.”

nHaving a guilty conscience, Iron Holler nodded: “That…That lady should be Miss Mu Rong Xu of the Floating Snow House…”

nThat subordinate looked at the guest with the purple beard and took a step back. He nodded and did not speak a word.

n“Didn’t you say that no one knew her identity?” The guest with the purple beard asked indifferently.

nCold sweat continued to emerg on Iron Holler’s body as he said: “This…This is truly a guess, there is no exact proof.”

nSuddenly, the purple beard guest gave an unconstrained laugh: “Don’t be nervous. Earlier you said that behind this information, you had some guesses. Why don’t you tell everyone about it?”

n“This…” Iron Holler felt been cornered.

n“Speak.” The voice of the purple beard guest was not urgent. Yet just these indifferent words caused Iron Holler to lose any and all hints of defiance.

n“Master, I only wanted to sell these information for some money. But what can I do since you are someone that knows the value of it?” Iron Holler showed a depressed face and felt extremely unwilling inwardly. However, under the careless intimidation from this purple beard guest, he could only obey and do what he was asked.

nInwardly, Qin Wushuang felt confused about the identity of this purple beard guest, why did he show so much interest in Qin Wushuang? Of course, he also wanted to hear what other appalling information this Iron Holler had.

nIron Holler swallowed a mouthful of saliva and gathered his effort to speak about it: “Regarding this, my guess is related to the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect.”

nThe expression of the purple beard guest was emotionless as an ancient well and did not show the slightest movements. He only listened quietly.

nNaturally, since it was related to the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect, Qin Wushuang cared about it more. He wanted to see how many more tricks this Heavenly Luo Daoist sect would bring to the table.

n“With our common sense, even if a young man from the human countries had some exceptional talent, how much threat would he pose towards the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect?”

nIndeed, the words of Iron Holler evoked a round of agreeing voices. Everyone did find it strange. With the position held by the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect in the Xuan Yuan Mound, they should not be creating such big fuss. The amount of anger and effort they had directed toward a young person from the human countries, issuing second-class assassination warrant made them appear as if they were flustered and exasperated.

nCould there be some deeper reasons?

nEven Qin Wushuang was curious about it. He would like to hear what kind of exclusive opinions Iron Holler would have on this matter.

n“I thought back and forth, the matter might be related to that Miss Mu Rong.” Iron Holler spoke astonishing words, “Many people know that there is an arranged marriage between the Floating Snow House and the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect. On one hand, the main character is Miss Mu Rong of the Floating Snow House, and the other one is Young Master Luo Ting, the most exceptional disciple to the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect. A couple of years ago, before the set date of the marriage, Miss Mu Rong had ran away from home!”

nMany people had heard about these gossips. When Iron Holler recalled the old news, they had some impression of it. Those who hadn’t heard about the gossips started to ask people next to them. Apparently, they were extremely interested in it.

n“Think about it, what is the meaning behind Miss Mu Rong leaving home? Of course it was to escape that marriage! Why is she fleeing from this arranged marriage? Of course, she did not want to marry to Young Master Luo Ting. Or because she did not want to get married yet. Regardless of the reason, to Young Master Luo Ting, it was a decent degree of humiliation. When a person’s fiancée flees home before the marriage, not to mention that Young Master Luo Ting being the most famous young talent in the Xuan Yuan Mound, even for us, the non-mainstream martial artists would not feel comfortable inwardly, right?”

nEveryone nodded thoughtfully. Even Qin Wushuang had realized the light when he heard this point. That was the reason Miss Mu Rong had left the Xuan Yuan Mound and set off on an adventure to the human countries.

n“What this Iron Holler meant, could it be that second class assassination warrant is related to Young Master Luo Ting?” When Qin Wushuang thought up to this point, he could not help but feel shocked.

nThe purple beard guest only smiled. However, within this smile, there was a trace of something different. His subordinate next to him continued to sneer.

nOn the other hand, a few faint strange facial expression suddenly emerged on the corner of Jiu Fang Feiyun’s mouth as if he had discovered something interesting.

nQin Wushuang was extremely sensitive. Soon, he had realized that the atmosphere was somewhat wrong.

n“Keep talking.” Purple beard guest shot a light glance at Iron Holler as he knew that there were more that had not been revealed.

nNow, being an intelligent person, Iron Holler also sensed a trace of something less than reassuring in the mood of the room. However, he could only keep talking since it was impossible to stop halfway: “That…That Qin Wushuang did not return to the human countries after he had obstructed the Red Maple Human Clan. All signs show that they had entered the Xuan Yuan Mound. Most importantly, don’t forget the surname of Qin Wushuang!”

n“Qin?”

n“Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan?”

n“No way, could that Qin Wushuang be a descendent of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan?”

n“It’s impossible for this to be a coincidence!”

nComments continued to rise and fall in succession incessantly to the ear. Apparently, Iron Holler’s explosive news left the scene chaotic.

n“If he is a disciple to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, then I must respect him! For the majority of my life, I had never been convinced by any powerhouse, but I do admire the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan!”

n“Yes, if that’s the case, I will not get involved. If I am going after the money, I have already registered when they were dealing with the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan! I will never get involved with anything involving with the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan!”

nClearly, the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan had a good reputation. Half of the freelance martial artists at the scene had stated their position that if Qin Wushuang was truly related to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, they would rather give up the mission and not earn this money against their conscience!

nFor a time, the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan was the symbol of the Xuan Yuan Mound that represented fairness and justice. They were the powerhouse that had once held the highest reputation among society out of all other historical Heavenly Emperors!

nNow, that purple beard guest and his subordinate had stood up. Suddenly, the guest with the purple beard said with a smile: “Is the butler of the union present?”

n“Mister, I am here to serve you.” One butler walked over.

n“I will also issue a mission. The reward is one hundred thousand gold crystal stones. Provide me with all information regarding Qin Wushuang, those who help me to find him will get one hundred thousand gold crystal stones! Remember, my bounty is different than the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect. They want a dead person, but I want him alive!”

nWhen the purple beard guest said up to here, he laughed and turned to talk to his subordinate: “Wu De, you will take care of it, I am going first.”

nNaturally, this purple beard guest was Lord Mu Rong Qianji of the Floating Snow House. And his subordinate was his most trusted aide Wu De.

nThe move made by the purple beard guest was not expected by Qin Wushuang. He could not help but fall into a deep thought as he watched the back of the purple beard guest.

nHe felt that the situation had become increasingly impossible to unravel.
